Players we have signed, improving their former teams.. 15:54 - Dec 7 with 3293 views | Dando | I have noticed a few times in recent years, where we have signed certain clubs "better players", or captains etc only for those teams to actually improve instead of weakening. - Charlie Austin - signed from Burnley, yet they still went up automatically. - Freeman - Bristol City now 3rd in the league - Lynch - Think was captain for Huddersfield if not wrong, then we sign him and they get promoted. - Smithies (see above) - Bidwell - Brentford not setting the league alight but finished above us last time round, and ahead of us again this year Think it shows how important a team work together, rather than just individual talent alone. Any coincidence and any other examples? | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Infrastructure. We are way behind. Get the training ground sorted and we'll be halfway there imho. | ![](/images/avatars/11748.gif) |

Then he took Reading up and got dumped by them as well (not before he volleyed one in against us of course...) | ![](/images/avatars/6250.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Players we have signed, improving their former teams.. on 23:58 - Dec 8 with 2577 views | CiderwithRsie | Incidentally the Perryman quote stood out for me too, I thought it reflected very well on him as a manager who genuinely cared for his players. It struck me that some might say he should have fought to keep Sinton at his club but if you are in the place Brentford were (and we now are) perhaps it is better to have the trust of your players. After all, the club gets to bank the money. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

He was close to being our manager, was between him and Holloway in 2001 | ![](/images/avatars/1922.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
